The WLAM Foundation's scholarship program has awarded 230 law students with over $560,000 to support their law school educations. Specially named awards exist for scholarships supported by large and ongoing donations from General Motors and Dickinson Wright Women's Network, and for a scholarship named for former WLAMF Treasurer Kimberly M. Cahill. More information on our Dean's List contributors and how can donate, can be found here.
